USPS First Class Mail is the equivalent of Priority Mail for anything less than 13 oz. So, depending on the shipping zones, it takes 2-3 days... and also if the drop off time happened to be just before the early morning pickup times it could save a day.

First Class mail...i've always been told would take 2-9 days. Sounds like you got your package within that timeframe.

^ What he said. The USPS always wants "you" to ship Priority as that is what they make the most money off of. I ship Priority because of convenience (ie - free shipping supplies, less end cost on buyers). Here's another one to blow your mind, PA. I can ship something to you, via Priority = $6.25 I can ship the same package to Canada = $2 ? |

padded envolopes are way to risky unless the figure is loose or your gonna tear it open, scary stuff.
